A true feat of cinematography. The immense effort Jiro and his apprentices puts into their craft is inspiring. One can only hope to be that dedicated to something in life.

Jiro's Dream Documentary

Very entertaining subject matter and the structure of this documentary is impressive. The Gelb's discipline and perfection seems weak compared to Jiro, mainly because having white subtitles in a white kitchen with chefs wearing white is a great sign of imperfection.

"4.4. Työetiikkaa ja vaivaantuneita katseita. Katseet onnettomiin tonnikalan pyrstöihin, sushinsyömistä valvovaan Jiroon ja tulevaisuudesta puhuttaessa katseet kulmia kohti. "

"I never thought I would be moved to tears over a documentary about sushi, but this managed to do that. I highly recommend this, I really, truly loved it."

"A charming documentary about an 89 year old sushi chef Jiro Ono who runs a Michelin 3 star restaurant in Ginza, Tokyo. Here is a man that strives for perfection in every meal he does for his customers. He carries on working not for financial gain but because he enjoys it. His small restaurant only has 10 seats and his 20 course menu will set you back a whopping $300!! Despite it being expensive, you have to make reservations at least one month in advance in order to secure a seat. It's no secret"

"An inspire story, but also a little bit scary. I can't imagine me living for my job entirely, or anyone else... it's a matter of priorities and culture, but still, it's too much to sacrifice for work satisfaction. And that sushis were like food porn, wow."
